Guys. After an unfortunate accident with my baby Carden Extra 330, I found a SWEEEEEEEET deal on a Dalton 300 here in the swapper. Just so much of a deal I just had to get it!!! Even though I'm not crazy about red, I can deal with it for a season.......

But anyways..... Just looking to see if I can get info on the CG and what size spinner. I'm not looking for the spinner right away, but CG would be a plus. The spinner will help get the CG right, the first time, but all in due time.

For some reason, I want to say it is a 5".........

Thanks!

Which one did you get?

Bunky F. Knuckle · 09-02-2009, 12:33 PM

This one, Mike. It's a 42%'er. Going bigger............. Borrowing a 157, building new A123 packs for it Friday, buying a couple of servos, and basically just waiting for it...........

Looking for CG rec's......

CG is 4.75" back from the leading edge measured at the wing tip. Spinner size is 5". Batterys usually go beside the fuel tank.

How does that country song go......."I'm Back In The Saddle Again".

That didn't take long to get out of your slumping feeling about flying ? Nice buy Chris. Good luck with it.

No you wont. The Dalton is shipping tomorrow, and I'm not gonna rush on getting it going. I still have to get 3 servos, and possibly a carb block and the reed cage for the 157 I'm putting in it. So, I still have 6-700 bux to spend. Bank acct. looks a little thin right now. Thats why I'm selling some stuff in the swapper here.

Possibly in October, it will fly. Otherwise it'll be next year when it will fly.

I'm not a fan of country music.........

But for the $$$ I spent on the Dalton, I'll keep it around a little longer and a little higher off the ground!!!!

NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

I'm still in a bit of a slump with DOGS coming up, and nuttin to fly, unless I fly something after 5p, then it'll be aight!!!
